- Google engineers developed Sashiko, an agentic AI code review system for the Linux kernel.
- Sashiko is now open-source and publicly available, funded by Google.
- It has been used internally at Google to find bugs in Linux kernel code.
- Sashiko detected around 53% of bugs in an unfiltered set of 1,000 recent Linux kernel issues.
- The system was designed for Google Gemini Pro 3.1 but is compatible with other LLMs like Claude.
- Google is funding the token budget and infrastructure, with project hosting moving to the Linux Foundation.
- The code is available on GitHub, and a web interface can be accessed at Sashiko.dev.
